Updatey the third...

In exciting news, the Hackney Council charge was indeed a parking ticket, and they did indeed give me the registration plate of the vehicle involved.

In less exciting news, when I reported all this to the local police they basically said "Hereisyourcrimereferencenumberhaveaniceday". When I asked about the possibility of actually using the information to catch someone, they got a bit shifty... I have to call back in a week to find out whether they decided to bother investigating or not. Bit disappointing considering I potentially just gave them the thief's home address.

You can write to the DVLA and ask for the name and address yourself. You have to provide a reason, but yours is more than good enough. There's a nominal charge for this service.
